No - DH and I were still in graduate school and living in a 3 room apartment. Somehow I had gotten it into my mind that I would be able to continue with my research exactly the same after the baby came and when that didn't happen I went into really horrible and deep depression. We finally got a bigger place, DH finished his Master's and got an industry position and I became far more realistic about what I could and could not accomplish. When we had #2 four years later, it was MUCH easier.
